Not sure why I didn't ask this before, why are you messing with the diffuser? You don't need them for aftermarket rail

Yeah just take them out if you decided to use all aftermarket rails, you'll have to use inserts instead.

I just took a quick picture, here's the space issue I'm talking about, you can't even see the primary rail lol.

you will get smoother idle with a 550CC primaries. You will also easily control the light load cells when doing partial throttle.

You can trick the ecu to run 725's with negative injector lag, but why do tricks?

I run 650CC in my primaries and everything is ok except I cannot totally lean out some of the very lean cells under light throttle downhill, I am also 6000-8000FT above sea level, which means I might not be in those cells at sea level.

They tend to break when you try to remove them, I broke mine last year when I replace them with new ones. You can always get new ones from Ray if you decide to stick with the OEM primary rail, they are like $25 a piece, or just run EV14 550 with aftermarket rail.

not much of an update. I had brought some parts to a friend's shop to sandblast, and then his sandblaster broke, and has been waiting on replacement parts since. in the meantime, i've been busy with work, and trying to have my s13 up for the season.

i did get some parts in, still waiting on some. i don't usually like spoilers, but most of this stuff is harmless.

two thirds of my v-mount, with FEED AST




I finally got the radiator, but haven't taken pictures of it yet.+

some other parts that just came in:



I was most excited about the KS boost controller, but the plugs that go into the ECU seem to be too tall. I assume maybe this is for a later generation FD? (oops) Also it appears to be missing the two solenoids as well.

Still have more parts on the way, still need to buy my fuel setup.

another teaser shot:

I'm looking forward to seeing more about the intercooler.
The wheels look pretty nice as well.

i know, i know. i'm liquidating some stuff i've been hoarding so i can make some moves this off-season. s13 project was a nightmare this year, and will continue to be a nightmare until the whole thing is re-wired.

few pics from this "season".











as for the FD, I still need to buy my fuel stuff. probably going to go with some new cj rails, and then maybe get this motor in and going. maybe get the entire thing painted as motivation, i don't know. the s13 leaves my hands in about a month to be rewired, so i'll need to prep for that, then it's FD time.
